Sunrise Chalet | Tahoe Donner Winter Home, Game Room, Near Skiing

Welcome to Sunrise Chalet!

Wake up to snowy sunrises at Sunrise Chalet, a bright split-level Tahoe Donner home about 20 minutes from major ski resorts and minutes from Donner Lake and downtown Truckee.

Slate stairs lead to the great room, where a wood-burning fireplace with a sweeping slate hearth, a leather sofa, and new wood floors set the mood. A flat-screen TV with Apple TV, a Blu-ray player, and a Super Nintendo cover game night. The kitchen has marble countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a big island, with dining for 8 and two seats at the breakfast bar.

The king primary suite has a private sitting area with a TV, a granite desk, a private balcony, and a dual-head rainfall shower. A spiral staircase leads to a kids' loft with two full beds. Downstairs, the game room has a pool table, a gas fireplace, a TV, board games, and a wet bar with a dual wine fridge for après-ski hangouts.

Other Things to Note:
Winter driveway: The driveway is an uphill slope. We strongly recommend 4-wheel drive with good mud/snow tires in winter.

Parking: 3 vehicles, including the one-car garage and driveway.

Tahoe Donner Amenities: Six guest cards give access to Tahoe Donner amenities, including the ski area, pools, hot tubs, and fitness centers, for a daily fee (children 2 and under are free). Amenities are not available to short-term rental guests during holiday blackout dates: Nov 26–29 and Dec 24, 2026–Jan 3, 2027.

Winter 2026/2027: Gas grills may not be accessible during the winter months, and fuel levels are not monitored from November 1 to May 1. Decks are shoveled for structural safety only and are not guaranteed to be clear of snow during winter.

Mountain living: Living in the mountains and staying in a private home means some things are outside our control. For example, severe weather has occasionally knocked out the Wi-Fi and power. While these instances are rare, we ask for your patience when they happen. We'll do our best to accommodate all requests, and situations like these (power outages, appliance issues, etc.) are handled on a case-by-case basis.

Cozy stay in Truckee

Fabulous cabin! We had a wonderful time in this cabin. Clean, and cozy. The pool table was enjoyed. It was nice to have the sheds to shed down the driveway. Super fun. The snowball makers were a hit as well.

Too expensive for these issues

Large cabin with ample room. Too expensive - not worth it for price and VRBO fee. Heating at the cabin major problem. First level controls the central heat, but the temperature differential is significant among levels. The main floor and the top loft are frigid. Two of the bedrooms are downstairs; you cannot run the heat at night because the downstairs bedrooms will swelter. Main level does not get warm no matter how much you run the heat. A major issue for a place this expensive. The listing said that the driveway might need a four-wheel drive vehicle. Even an X5 with new all-season tires could not. Do not stay here if a storm is in the forecast. One night the car slid ten feet on the icy driveway simply due to the cold ground ice. The slope of the driveway is extreme. Next night after the snowstorm we couldn't make it up the driveway. Property managers were helpful and one of their guys drove tried to help us clear out snow. He could not make it up the driveway himself in a huge four-wheel drive truck. We left the car on street and snow plows came through. There is no central location to dry your ski/board clothing at the end of the day. Hunted for heat vents to dry socks, boots and gloves. Not enough furniture. A small couch and chair in the living room. Only 1 of 4 burners worked; dishwasher does not clean silverware; master bath shower has a broken door. Good luck.

Great location, responsive property manager

We enjoyed our stay at this property close to Tahoe Donner downhill ski runs. The property manager Holly was responsive and helped work through last minute issues. The house has a nice design with three rooms and a cool area on to the top floor for kids. It doesn’t have a hot tub in the house, but we knew that going in and the website listing was accurate. I am taking off one star because the property is a bit dated, this includes the kitchen pans which were old, the primary shower in main master bedroom was leaking, and cleaning team had not dusted off the furniture in bedrooms well. Also could improve with more blankets and sheets. That said, we enjoyed our stay.
